Still Standin' Tall Kaptaan

Chorus

Kaptaan…

Lion of Lahore, you carried our hope in your hand

Kaptaan…

From ’92 nights to leadin’ the whole of the land

When the world said “no”, you turned the corner to fight

Cornered tigers rise in the darkest night

Imran Khan…

From the crease to the Parliament halls

Imran Khan…

Still standin’ when a proud heart falls

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh Kaptaan

Oh oh oh Kaptaan

Verse 2

Teenage debut, Edgbaston rain, green cap on his head

Facing England, no fear, just a fast run‑up instead

Learned reverse swing from Sarfraz, passed it on to the pack

Wasim, Waqar, thunder rollin’ every time they attacked

’82 – captain’s band, he took the green flag higher

Venom in his bowling, every spell a ring of fire

India, England, both away – history was rewrote

First series wins on foreign soil, he carried all our hopes

Pre‑Chorus

He said, “Play like cornered tigers, forget the fear inside

We’ve got a whole world doubting us, but faith is on our side”

Every over, every run, was a promise to the crowd

From Karachi to Peshawar, he made a nation loud

Chorus

Kaptaan…

Lifting the World Cup high beneath Melbourne skies

Kaptaan…

Tears in a million Pakistani eyes

When the ball hit the hands and the last man fell

You could hear “Pakistan Zindabad” in every yell

Imran Khan…

From Wisden pages to the Hall of Fame walls

Imran Khan…

Still echo when the stadium calls

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh Kaptaan

Oh oh oh Kaptaan
