we dont want nobody to here our secret vs we do not want anybody to hear our secret

Both phrases have issues. The first phrase 'we dont want nobody to here our secret' contains a double negative ('dont' and 'nobody'), which is not standard English. The second phrase 'we do not want anybody to hear our secret' is the correct and standard way to express the idea of not wanting anyone to hear the secret.
