1 more line of this song has me a little bit confused.

Tu eres el amigo del alma que en toda jornada
Sonrisa y abrazo festivo a cada llegada

I'll try to translate the spirit of the verse (which is the best you can do with a song), so there is no word-for-word translation.


You are my soulmate that, for every journey,
gives a great big smile and a hug with/at each arrival

Thanks! I was just slightly confused on why "festivo" was in there.

"Festivo" is something that celebrates something; in this case, each arrival is celebrated with a hug and a smile.
