Donalbain's statement that "there's daggers in men's smiles" reveals how everyone seems to be enemies of them. The statement is a metaphorical revelation to his brother Malcolm to be weary of everyone and be careful.

William Shakespeare's "Macbeth" revolves around the story of a Scottish general Macbeth and his rise to the throne of Scotland by murderous means. The story deals with themes of evil, greed, betrayal, good vs bad, loyalty, etc.

Donalbain and Malcolm are King Duncan’s two sons who were murdered by Macbeth to get the throne for himself. Donalbain exclaims "There's daggers in men's smiles" in Act II scene iii, after the discovery of their father, King Duncan's murder. His statement refers to the need to be careful of everyone around them for they know not who is responsible for their father's death and that very person may as well want them dead too. Donalbain's statement is right on point because we know it was Macbeth's work and he would do anything to get the throne, even killing the kings' sons too. And to ensure they are safe from whoever is responsible, the two sons decided to flee to England and Ireland separately.

Macbeth's greed and the infatuation about the three witches' predictions being true led him to murderous acts. This led to his downfall, but at the cost of the lives of his close ones, including his wife. Donalbain and his brother Malcolm fled to England and Ireland after their father's murder, returning to avenge their father's death with the death of Macbeth. The realization that "there's daggers in men's smiles" reveals how everyone is dangerous for the brothers' safety and that they need to be careful and save themselves from whoever is guilty.

Donaldbain says that men may smile at them but underneath they are accusing them of Duncan's murder. Both Donaldbain and Malcolm will be targets of people seeking revenge. Fleeing from Scotland will only makes them look more guilty of killing their father.
