I wan[t] to say in Klingon: "Things I want to see" or "Things which I want
to see"
I came with this: Dochmey vIlegh vIneHbogh.

This is very difficult to parse. "I see things" is that which I want.
That is, it looks like [Dochmey vIlegh] vIneHbogh, instead of Dochmey
vI[legh vIneH]bogh, which is what you want. Creepy.
Let's figure out a complete sentence. "I name things I want to see."
I would simply split this into two sentences or clauses.
Dochmeyvetlh vIlegh vIneH; vIpong.
I want to see those things; I name them.
Dochmeyvetlh vIlegh vIneH 'ej vIpong.
I want to see those things and I name them.
Dochmeyvetlh vIlegh vIneHchugh vIpong.
If I want to see those things, I name them.
Doch vIlegh vIneHchugh vIpong.
If I want to see a thing, I name it.
