For English and classical, I'd suggest you look at some of the Benjamin Britten folk song setting - such as "Sally Gardens", "O, Waly Waly" "The Ash Grove" are some of the shorter, simpler ones.
You might also check some of the Copeland "Old American Songs": "Long Time Ago" or "At the River" are not hard to learn.
