It is "Vittu vidada" to the best of my knowledge. This is the song I was looking for.Thank You.

[Pratyaksham Bala]

Yes, of course, 'viTTuviDaDA' by MS is a popular version.

In the Tamil Rama Natakam, it is given as 'viDu viDaDA'. This rhymes with the words in the subsequent lines -- viDu, shuDu, aDaDA.

Anyway, 'viTTuviDaDA' is equally eloquent !

'Vittu vidada Seethayai" is what I have heard and the meaning also seems to be correct.- asking Ravana to leave Seethai alone- return her to Rama.

We have discussed this earlier - see here.
