Here's a few that come to mind:
Bernstein's I Hate Music Duke's Lewis Carroll Songs (not especially soprano-esque, however--I have them if you're intrigued) Brahms' Vergeblisches Standchen, Sandmannchen, and of course Wiegenlied Mozart Der Zauberer, Das Veilchen Schubert Die Vogel, Der Schmetterling, Der Jungling an der Quelle, Seligkeit Copland's cycle of old songs (sorry, I can't recall the name)--includes I bought me a cat There are some settings of Walter de la Mare poems that could work Stephen Foster songs Nancy Hanks (sad!) Haydn--My mother bids me bind my hair, Mermaid's song Liza Lehmann--The Swing Greig--Solveig's Song (works well in English) Poor Wandring One or other G&S goodies John Jacob Niles songs almost any folk songs, spirituals.
