This card doesn't count to draw limit correct?
Is it because it doesn't specifically say to draw?

Correct. If the effect simply has "reveal", "add to hand", etc then it does not count against your 3 card draw cap. If any part of the effect has the word "draw", such as with Val (RotO) who uses both "draw" and "reveal", does indeed count against your draw cap.
Also the Arabic on this card is pure gibberish. Just a bunch of mashed up letters for effect. Still a good card though.

Do I need to show which card I'm taking it? Because some people told me that you only need to show the top 2, after that, you can hide and chose one, without showing to your enemy. 

seems right to me

No. Their state stays 'revealed' until you've put them to their destination (Hand or bottom of deck). Your opponent knows which went where.
