აკაკი წერეთელის ლექსების სრული კრებული. აკაკიმ მრავალმხრივი საზოგადოებრივი მოღვაწეობის მიუხედავად, ხალხს თავი შეაყვარა სწორედ ამ ლექსებით. წერდა ბავშვობიდან, 20 წლის ასაკში კი უკვე სახელგანთქმულ ლირიკოსად ითვლებოდა მთელ საქართველოში. მის „საიდუმლო ბარათოს“ არა მარტო კითხულობდნენ, მღეროდნენ კიდეც. სისადავე, სულიერებით გაჟღენთილი მგრძნობელობა და ნაზი ლირიზმი არის ის, რითაც ხიბლავდა აკაკის პოეზია მკითხველს.

Prince Akaki Tsereteli (Georgian: აკაკი წერეთელი; June 9, 1840-January 26, 1915) was a prominent Georgian poet and national liberation movement figure.

Born in the village of Skhvitori (Imereti region of western Georgia) on June 9, 1840, to a prominent Georgian aristocratic family; his father was Prince Rostom Tsereteli; his mother, Princess Ekaterine, was a daughter of Ivane Abashidze and a great-granddaughter of King Solomon I of Imereti. Following an old family tradition, Akaki Tsereteli spent his childhood years living with a peasant’s family in the village of Savane. He was brought up by peasant nannies, all of which made him feel empathy for the peasants’ life in Georgia.

He graduated from the Kutaisi Gymnasium in 1852 and the University of Saint Petersburg Faculty of Oriental Languages in 1863.
Prince Akaki Tsereteli was a close friend of Prince Ilia Chavchavadze, a Georgian progressive intellectual youth leader. The young adult generation of Georgians during the 1860s, led by Chavchavdze and Tsereteli, protested against the Tsarist regime and campaigned for cultural revival and self-determination of the Georgians.

He is an author of hundreds of patriotic, historical, lyrical and satiric poems, also humoristic stories and autobiographic novel. Akaki Tsereteli was also active in educational, journalistic and theatrical activities.
The famous Georgian folk song Suliko (full English version[1]) is based on Akaki Tsereteli’s lyrics.
He died on January 26, 1915 and was buried at the Mtatsminda Pantheon in Tbilisi.
