One of the most beautiful songs dedicated to the Greek women of Smyrna is Μια Σμυρνιά στο παραθύρι (A Smyrna Woman in the Window). It is a tribute to these distinctive and resourceful women who were the backbone of Greek Smyrna, whose courage and utterly unflappable nature, in retrospect, is awe-inspiring, and an inspiration, and example for all to follow, in their understated, but elegant, way.
