you (sing.) have come home well
That is the literal translation, but it simply means 'Welcome home'. It should be 'bene domum venisti', 'domum' here being an accusative of the end of motion. 'Domus', like 'rus' and the names of towns and small islands, does not require a preposition indicating the direction of the motion.
