In plain words
Something is called an effect only on these terms: it once was not, and then came to be out of something else. The sun's light does not work that way. Light is the sun's own nature — it never first failed to be and then got born.
Close to the Sanskrit
That which, not having been, comes to be from something — that is held to be the effect of that. Because of being its own very nature, the light of the sun does not, after not having been, arise.
