Strip away

Strip away food my Lord

Strip away water

Strip away control my Lord

And make me stronger

Strip me of worldy affairs

Remind me of who I truly am

Your slave who cares

With sins built up like a dam

I am your servant

Your flawed and lowly creation

Lacked of nourishment

I get from praise of your perfection

Your mark is everywhere

With mankind striving to forget

With pain too bad to bare

Guide us and let it set

Help me stay on the straight path

So I can walk where it is paved

Take me to where I began

So This imaan that I can save

Allow me to praise your excellence

In hope of your love

That is reminiscent with my reflection

Built from the wonders above

I belong to you and to you alone

You breathed life into me alone

And will take it from me alone
