Based on the 12th Principle “The belief in the arrival of the Messiah and the messianic era” of The Thirteen Principles of Jewish Faith (Die 13 Glaubenssätze) (Rabbi Moshe ben Maimon – “Maimonides” aka “The Rambam”).

And even though he may tarry
Und auch wenn er sich verzögert
Et bien qu’il tarde
Y aunque se demore
עִם כָּל זֶה | אֲנִי מַאֲמִין | עִם כָּל זֶה | אֲחַכֶּה לּוֹ
im kol zeh – ani ma’amin – im kol zeh – achakeh lo
Nonetheless – I believe – nonetheless I will wait for him
Dennoch glaube ich – dennoch warte ich auf ihn
cependant – je crois – cependant je l’attendrai
No obstante – creo – no obstante lo esperaré
בְּכָל יוֹם | בְּכָל יוֹם | שֶׁיָּבוֹא
bechol yom – bechol yom – sh’yavo.
Every day, every day, [I will wait for him] to come
jeden Tag, jeden Tag, [erwarte ich ihn] dass er kommt.
Chaque jour, chaque jour, [je l’attendrai] qu’il vienne
Todos los días, todos los días, [lo esperaré] para que venga
The tune described as “a somber melody” was written during the Holocaust. The composer of the tune is unknown. According to legend, however, Reb Azriel David Fastag was divinely inspired to sing it on a train to Treblinka. A fellow captive jumped out of the train and escaped, eventually teaching the tune to the Modzitzer Rebbe, Rabbi Shaul Yedidya Elazar. Read the story on the Chabad website.
