Adieu Definition

Answers.com has a good answer to this one:
Say goodbye, take leave of, as in It's beyond my bedtime, so I bid you all adieu, or I'll be glad to bid adieu to these crutches. French for “goodbye,” adieu literally means “to God” and was part of à dieu vous commant, “I commend you to God.” Adopted into English in the 1300s, it was first recorded in Chaucer's Troilus and Cressida (c. 1385). Today it is considered quite formal, although it also is used humorously.

Well Adieu means farewell and bidding tends to mean saying or giving (in this context) ...So, to bid someone adieu, means to say "I bid you farewell," which is a proper way / old european way of saying good bye.
