Carol, Spain.
This popular Spanish carol by an anonymous author is believed to come from Castilla y León.
En Belén tocan a fuego refers to the birth of Jesus – a fact so extraordinary that the bells in Bethlehem “sound as for a fire“. That is, the custom that used to exist to ring the bells to warn of fire in villages. It is a carol with perhaps a more solemn touch than others, since it is usually performed by a choir.

Lyrics (Spanish)
En Belén tocan a fuego,
del Portal salen las llamas,
porque dicen que ha nacido
el Redentor de las almas.
Brincan y bailan los peces en el río,
brincan y bailan por ver a Dios nacido.
Brincan y bailan los peces en el agua,
brincan y bailan de ver nacida el alba.
En el Portal de Belén
nació un clavel encarnado,
que por redimir al mundo
se ha vuelto lirio morado.
Brincan y bailan los peces en el río,
brincan y bailan por ver a Dios nacido.
Brincan y bailan los peces en el agua,
brincan y bailan de ver nacida el alba.
Los pastores en Belén
llevaban haces de leña,
para calentar al niño
que ha nacido en Nochebuena.
Brincan y bailan los peces en el río,
brincan y bailan por ver a Dios nacido.
Brincan y bailan los peces en el agua,
brincan y bailan de ver nacida el alba.
