Let It Be Soon!
['Dovid Nachman Golding']
Mishpacha Magazine
In 1976, on the London Pirchei’s London Live album, Yigal Calek changed the tempo and made the famous words into a march (“Ani-i-i maamin, ani ma-amin…”).
The following year, Shmuel Borger upped the tempo even more on for the “Ani Maamin” on Amudei Shaish Vol.
The boy tells of how he heard his father say the words “Ani maamin b’emunah sheleimah…” — and then gunfire cuts it off.
What made the song — composed by Berel Leiner and Shmuel Borger — extra special was the star child soloist, Zev Scherl.
He played the Simcha Machine with his famous line, “I see it… but I don’t believe it.”
