What are some traditional European Christmas songs?

I'm not talking about songs like Silent Night, Joy to the World or Oh Holy Night. What are similar songs to classics like White Christmas, I'll Be Home for Christmas, Let it Snow, and Winter Wonderland? The more secular classics, I suppose.

Lili Marlene is sometimes included on Christmas playlists.

Google Christmas at Kings, then thank God.

Not sure there are many secular traditional European Christmas songs.
Songs like the Wexford Carol and Sussex Carol are traditional, but religious based.
O Tannenbaum, Adeste Fidelis, and Gloria in Excelsis are all old European songs that have been translated to English and are part of the English/American tradition now (Oh Christmas Tree, O Come All Ye Faithful, Angels We Have Heard on High).
The 12 Days of Christmas and Carol of the Bells are both European but have become commonplace in America as well.
