In English there is such a combination "to be welcome"which doesn't require a passive form.It's also an interjection but regarding your sentence I'm inclined to suppose that it is a sinonym of"not at all""never mention it"it's just my preference.

Hi Feodor

"I'm most grateful" is similar in meaning to "Thank you very much".
And a standard response to "Thank you" is "You're welcome."

As Pamela mentioned, "You are welcomed" is a passive formation of the verb "to welcome". It's a little difficult for me to think of a good example in which "You are welcomed" would be used, but here is what comes to mind as a possibility:

Although you visit them every single day, you are always welcomed into their home as if it had been years since the last visit.
