Voici venir les Barbapapa (Barbapapa)

Voici venir les Barbapapa (in English: Here come the Barbapapas), also known as La famille des Barbapapa (in English: The Barbapapa family) is the intro to the 1974 TV series Barbapapa. It is featured at the start of all 100 episodes. It was mainly performed by Ricet Barrier, who was also the narrator of the series, and composed by Joop Stokkermans. It was written by Harrie Geelen.

The intro introduces all of the Barbapapa family, their ability to shapeshift, and describes them all by their color in the extended version.

The credits are a short, 10 second instrumental reprise of this intro.

Albanian
The opening used in the Albanian dub is of the first Italian theme, but subtitled in Albanian.

Like the English Centauro version, Barbalib is accidentally left out of the roll call (but there is no repeating of anyone else's names). Ja ku po vijnë Mjekëroshët! Mjekëroshët! Në familjen e Mjekëroshëve! Eja me ne tek Mjekëroshët. Ti i shikon të shëndërrohen, sa herë që duan! Sa herë që duan!

Barbapapas are kind and gentle (And change their shape!) Barbapapas are sentimental And they will always try to help you Even if you don't deserve it They are so nice!

And they can fly(?), so don't desert them Just don't you lie or try to hurt them And they'll become the best ever friends!

バーバファミリーのうた (Romaji: Barbafamily no uta; English: Song of the Barbafamily) is the intro to the TV Tokyo Japanese dub of the series. It was composed by Chuuji Kinoshita, with lyrics by Zenzo Matsuyama. The full song was used as the intro without any cuts.

This version is a completely different song arrangement, using a random selection of clips from the series as footage. This is also the only version to give the show a different opening entirely.

 * Singers: Kais Kappler and unidentified male voice

30 seconds of an extended version of the opening that was used in the English Centauro dub was made available to the Barbapapa YouTube channel.

Because there are only 30 seconds of the extended intro available to the public, the lyrics to the rest of the song are not known. It is pressumed they are roughly the same as the British version, given that the other songs also adapt from the same lyrics as the songs in that dub.

Here is the star, it's Barbapapa! He'll introduuuce... All of the other Barbapapas They've got a lot of wild disguises! They can change their shapes and sizes very easily...

Barbapapa's pink, he's in the pink [...]

The Arabic SharingCode dub uses the Dutch opening theme, while the Albanian dub uses the first Italian theme, subtitled in Albanian. The Canadian English dub uses the British English theme. The Norwegian VHS dub allegedly uses the intro from the first Finnish dub of the series.

The English (1990, Japanese releases only), Finnish Yle TV2, Persian Roudaki, Swedish SVT and Wendros, and Turkish dubs all left the opening theme instrumental. In the original run of the 1978 Hebrew dub, the series was broadcast with no intro whatsoever. Once the show aired as its own program titled "סיפורי ברבאבא", an instrumental opening was later added.

In the Persian IRIB dub, the opening uses an instrumental theme (the one with additional instruments) and immediately cuts to the end part, with a voice-over.
