No, can't help you, I'm a noob in Japanese myself...
But I think it says something with
tomorrow (ashita)
too (mo)
die (shinjiteitaiya)

I know tomorrow & too 4 sure, but I can't really translate that 'shinjiteitaiya'...
You'll just have to wait 'till someone who is good in japanese replies

This explanation is for you, just cause I'm trying to put off doing real work . The verb for 'die' is 死ぬ（しぬ） shinu. What you've got there is 信じる（しんじる）shinjiru, to believe. To help you understand how it's conjugated, I'll break it up into parts. 信じる here is in it's ーて form. In this case, the verb was conjugated as ーている. ーている　was then conjugated with the ～たい verb ending which means to want the action or want to perform the action.
Example: 行く（いく）iku (Go/to go)　行きたい（いきたい）ikitai (Want to go).

After that, I'm not by any means certain, but my hunch is that the speaker wasn't speaking in the tokyo dialect because they used や instead of だ (This is just a guess, but I'm pretty confident in my guess otherwise I wouldn't hazard my opinion. Still, take it with a grain of salt). I'm not really confident enough in its usage to discuss how the ～ている form works, but I hope you can see how the verb was constructed, at least.

Thank you all!!! Still I have to ask you one more thing. Actually two duo797 why do I have partly quadrates instead of letters in your post?! Infact not only in your post it is very hard to understand anything completely that way. And MMM how much are you sure?! I have to ask cause it's very very very important for me to know exactly meaning ( it's the content of the postcard i got last week ).
And really guys thank you once again

Since you are not writing in Japanese and there is no context to the sentence I am only 99% sure.

If you're seeing the diamonds with question marks, then you probably don't have the correct fonts installed. I just used kanji/hiragana. Also, as for context, he means was there anything else written besides what you posted here.

Truth is that was nothing but the Tokyo dialect. You won't hear that や used this way nearly as often elsewhere.　

"Instead of だ"? That the Japanese use だ so often as a sentence-ender is a North American myth. Native speakers don't do it.

You wrote: Ashita mo shinjiteitaiya

I mean 明日も信じていたいや

That is writing in Japanese.
