Let's see. This should be a good practise for my Klingon...
You have your very own Klingon? Wow!
tlhIngan Duj 'oHchugh Dujvam Dochvam chotlhobta'mo' SIbI' qaHoHbej.
(If this vessel was a Klingon vessel, I would centainly kill you
immediately
because you asked my this.)
How about that? The most complicated Klingon sentence I ever wrote on this
list. Is it at least understandable? ;-)
While I like ghunchu'wI''s approach better, you should be congratulated on
your effort. Klingon doesn't have an "irrealis", as ghunchu'wI' has already
pointed out, so there's a "gotcha" that got you, but the overall meaning of
your intent came through and what you wrote is not grammatically wrong,
except for the missing {-'e'} suffix on {Dujvam}. Remember that the "to be"
construction is {X 'oH Y'e'}.
Yet another approach:
naDev SoHmo' chomawDI' bIyInlaH, 'ach tlhIngan DujDaq bIjatlhHa'chugh vaj
bIHegh!
