(Some words not found in UHB: and_[is],sweet the=light and=good for,eyes to=see DOM the,sun )
Here the word “light” refers to being able to see the sun and therefore being alive. And, this speaks of the joy of being alive as if the light had a sweet taste. Alternate translation: [it is a joy to be able to see the sun] or [being alive is delightful] (See also: figs-metaphor)
