To translate "Like me, they never laid eyes upon their homeland." to Czech, I will follow these steps:

1. Identify the main components of the sentence: subject, verb, object, etc.
2. Translate each component into Czech.
3. Rearrange the components to match Czech sentence structure (subject, verb, object), making any necessary adjustments for grammar and agreement.

Step 1: Identifying the main components:

- "Like me" is a prepositional phrase showing comparison.
- "They" is the subject.
- "Never" is an adverb modifying the verb.
- "Laid eyes upon" is the verb meaning "to see" in a more poetic way.
- "Their homeland" is the object, referring to a shared country or place of origin.

Step 2: Translating the components:

- "Like me" = "jako já"
- "They" = "oni"
- "Never" = "nikdy"
- "Laid eyes upon" = "neviděli", (the direct translation 'položili oči na' is not suitable in this context, so we use a more appropriate verb 'to see' which is 'vidět' in Czech and adjust it according to context)
- "Their homeland" = "svou vlast"

Step 3: Rearrange the components and adjust for grammar:

"Jako já, oni nikdy neviděli svou vlast."

In this translation:

- "Jako já" was maintained at the beginning of the sentence to emphasize the comparison.
- "Oni" is placed as the subject, followed by "nikdy" as an adverb.
- The appropriate verb for "to see" in Czech, "neviděli", was selected and placed after the adverb.
- "Svou vlast" was placed at the end of the sentence to represent the object.

Final Result: "Jako já, oni nikdy neviděli svou vlast."
