Chorus:
O my Shaykh, gaze upon me,
Take my veils so I may see.
Three faces hide within my soul,
Purify me, make me whole.
---
Verse 1 – The Public Face
I show the world a polished frame,
With humble words, a pious name.
But deep inside, I know it’s true,
Without your gaze, I’d still be two.
---
Verse 2 – The Face for the Shaykh
Before you, master, I bow and pray,
I try my best to obey your way.
Yet hidden pride may still remain,
Your nazar cuts through my feigned domain.
---
Chorus:
O my Shaykh, gaze upon me,
Take my veils so I may see.
Three faces hide within my soul,
Purify me, make me whole.
---
Verse 3 – The Hidden Face
The darkest face I try to hide,
Ego, anger, secret pride.
But in your mirror, all is shown,
Through love you make my heart your own.
---
Verse 4 – The Shaykh’s Role
Your gaze, a light, a surgeon’s hand,
You cleanse my heart as you command.
To nothingness you guide my way,
Till only love of Truth may stay.
---
Bridge (soft, reflective):
Take my hidden face,
Burn away disgrace.
Dress me in Your light,
O Nur of the night.
---
Final Chorus:
O my Shaykh, gaze upon me,
Take my veils so I may see.
Three faces hide within my soul,
Purify me, make me whole.
Through your love, I’ll find my goal,
In Allah’s light, complete and whole.
