Ten Nights of Dreams (夢十夜, Yume Jūya) or Ten Nights' Dreams is a series of short pieces by Natsume Sōseki. It was published in the Asahi Shimbun from July 25 to August 5, 1908.

Sōseki writes of ten dreams set in various time periods, including his own time (the Meiji period) and as far back as the "age of the gods," and the Kamakura period. Four of the ten dreams begin with the phrase "This is what I saw in my dream" (こんな夢を見た Konna yume o mita).
