That's one possible interpretation. Here's another: it's Clipped Klingon, short for *tlhIngan maH. mataHjaj!*
And yet another: a noun has elided: *tlhIngan maH. taHjaj ghu'vam!*
Or a more specific one: *tlhIngan maH. taHjaj wo'!*
Or maybe this is an example of a verb whose subject is just so well understood that it's never actually stated, like when a Klingon feels water falling from the sky and says*SIS.* What is the subject of *SIS?* Nothing specific, but we understand the sentence all the same.
Or another: it's really *tlhIngan maHtaHjaj*/May we continue to be Klingons./ -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
