Darling, oh darling, come my sweetheart
I am indeed the one, your darling man
I am a rogue, a trickster, a rowdy
If I twirl my mustache, I am Lalettan (actor Mohanlal)
Draped in an Onam saree with kohl in your eyes
When you walk in slow motion, my beloved
Girl, you said you don't need any gold from me
You and you alone are all that I desire
Hit it, hit it, adipoli (awesome)!
Adipoli!
Hit it, hit it, adipoli (awesome)!
Darling, oh darling, come my sweetheart
I am indeed the one, your darling man
I am a rogue, a trickster, a rowdy
If I twirl my mustache, I am Lalettan (actor Mohanlal), hey!
Holding you close to my chest
Hugging you tight and planting a kiss
I will give you a kiss, my girl
As sweet as a ghee appam (fried sweet cake)
You taste so sweet upon my tongue, girl
Dabbing a bit of sandalwood paste
And placing a tiny bindi on your forehead
The moment you walked in, my heart's rhythm
Sped right up, beating lub-dub
Like piping hot ghee puttu (steamed rice cake)
I am going to feast completely
I will tie the thali (sacred wedding knot) around your neck
And take you away with me
You crazy guy, oh crazy guy
I truly adore you
Thinking only of you, I smiled every day
I hid you inside my dangling earring
I will stay by your side as your life till the end
Adipoli!
...
Darling, oh darling, to your man
I am indeed your one and only sweetheart
You rogue, you trickster, my rowdy boy
If you twirl your mustache, you are Lalettan (actor Mohanlal)
Oh no, my dad is here!
Hit it, hit it, adipoli (awesome)!
Adipoli!
Hit it, hit it, adipoli (awesome)!

Beyond the translation

Overall song meaning

'Adipoli' is a vibrant Tamil-Malayalam fusion independent music track that captures playful romantic banter against a colorful festive backdrop inspired by Kerala's Onam traditions. The song expresses a lighthearted courtship where the male lead boasts about his charismatic swagger—comparing himself to Malayalam superstar Mohanlal (Lalettan)—while fondly complimenting his lover's traditional beauty and comparing her charm to sweet Kerala delicacies like Neyyappam and Neyputtu.

Metaphor

“Nei appam inippa nee”

The speaker directly compares the beloved's sweet nature to 'Nei appam' (a traditional fried sweet snack made with ghee).

Alliteration / Monaai

“Kedi killadi rowdy naanae”

Repetition of the 'K' sound in 'Kedi' and 'killadi' adds emphasis and rhythmic bounce.
