I was inspired to write this song shortly after I had first watched a video by Danai Moraiti which was her performing a Greek song "i garsona (Panos Tountas)" on her electric piano. What really captured my heart was her most beautiful smile at the end of her performance. I have never seen such a smile in all of this world. From that moment on, I ordained her to be my QUEEN OF SMILES !!!! .... That was well over a year ago as I had encountered a problem after I had already sang the lyrics that I had written for this song. I didn't know then as I do not know now, how to pronounce her name in English .... A most embarrassing dilemma .... In English, the combination of "ai" creates a long vowel "A"sound but her name is in Greek. I spent over a month researching her name on Google and I asked people who were European but nobody knew for sure and so I abandoned this song. I didn't know Danai as well back then and I did not wish to mispronounce her name but we are such good friends now that I feel more comfortable in taking this risk. If I am wrong on the pronunciation of her name, I will then wear a tutu and dance the Nutcracker for DANAI as we go fishing. You can see and hear more of Danai here https://www.youtube.com/user/danai2014 LYRICS Queen of smiles. My Queen of Smiles. Danai is my Queen of smiles. Queen of smiles. My Queen of smiles. Danai is my Queen of smiles. Danai and me go fishing by the sea ... She and me ... "She and me." We shall catch a fish or maybe 2 or 3 ... We'll see ... "We shall see." I'll bring the poles and she'll bring the worms. I'll bait the hooks and then we'll take turns casting our lines out into the bay where we shall fish onto the break of day. Queen of smiles. My Queen of Smiles. Danai is my Queen of smiles. Queen of smiles. My Queen of smiles. Danai is my Queen of smiles.
