"Light" here is used in the color sense, i.e. the opposite of "dark." The "corn" part is because it's made from cornstarch. "Syrup" should be obvious. It's mainly glucose and water.

Corn syrup (such as Karo) comes in dark and clear. When a recipe calls for light, it means to use the clear on instead of the dark colored one.
