I had in mind languages classed as 'HLLs'. I'm not sure if Forth counts.

Otherwise there was a HLA I once worked with (that looks a lot more like 
a HLL than Forth ever will).

Plus various Intermediate Languages that I've devised. These are higher 
level than assembly, but are clearly not HLLs either. Especially 
stack-based ones like this actual example for a Hello program:

   proc main*
       loadimm  u64   "Hello, World"
       callp          puts 1 0
       stop           0
   end

   extproc void puts
       extparam u64
   extend

These are designed to be machine generated, but this one you could write 
manually if you had to. It's easier than ASM and it's portable.
