I would expect that it does.

«tlhIngan Hol vIjatlh 'e' vInaj.»
= "I speak Klingon. I dream about [the previous sentence]."
~ "I dream about me speaking Klingon."

Note that «naj» probably refers to imagining things while sleeping (hence «najmoHwI'» = "lullaby"), rather than the sort of dreaming that Martin Luther King jr. is famous for.
