    Is this right translation of mine?

    Stát Maine, jehož lesy jsem si na dálku zamiloval.
    ->
    Maine state, of which forests I fell for remotely.

    A more natural, if more poetic, rendition:

    State of Maine, whose forests won my heart from afar.

    If you don't want to use the personal pronoun "whose" you could say the forests of which, but that gets a little wordy for me.

    Is this the State Song or something?

    No, it's actually my own sentence :)
