summary-

we go through our journey of life only once and we should make our journey worthy by being supportive to our fellow beings or friends by speaking Words of cheer,a smile and a helping hand (meaning to help them when they are in trouble)

2nd stanza-

only once we travel in the journey of life we can't retrace the path again i.e the time which is past never returns and hence we can't go back and correct our mistakes or speak love's Words which we knew but never spoke.so better think before you act and try to do the right than thinking of correcting your wrongs.

3rd stanza-

we should make our journey blossomy and sweet by making our fellow travellers happy by speaking tender Words and helping them when they are in trouble and by doing kind deeds.so that life which is full of trouble can be made better with kind deeds and tender Words(both your life and fellow beings)
