It usually means that the cylinder head gasket has perished. The gasket is designed to provide a complete seal for the combustion chamber and allow full combustion of the fuel to take place. When it perishes, air is drawn in to the chambers by the sucking action of the pistons, which accounts for the hissing noise. The smoking is caused by the fact that incomplete combustion is taking place, meaning that partially-burnt fuel is being expelled as dirty smoke.
Unless you have knowledge of car engines and also the necessary tools to make the repair, it will need to be carried out by a garage.
