Is it permissible to say: I turn to You with “there is no god but Allah,” I muzzle your mouth with a thousand “there is no might nor power except with Allah,” faces are disgraced and eyes are humbled?

The intent of the question is unclear. If the questioner is asking whether these words are from the Hadith of the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, then we have not found any basis for them. If the questioner is asking whether it is permissible to supplicate with these words for protection, then there is no objection except for the phrase "May faces be disfigured and eyes be humbled." It is not permissible to supplicate with this against someone who is not an oppressor. As for an oppressor, it is permissible to supplicate against him to the extent of his injustice, but forgiveness is preferable. It is best to adhere to what is authenticated in the Sunnah for supplication.
