I want to write a poem for a japanese friend, and I dont know how can I write innocent light, or light innocent perfect.

I use traductor but, I dont know if 光 あどけない is correct, or is 無邪気な光. Maybe both are wrong, I dont know :(
 
無邪気な光 is OK (I guess. I'm not a native speaker, but the syntax and the meaning is correct)
あどけない光 would be the proper syntax, but somehow the meaning feels strange - as if the adjective is not quite right.

Both of these would translate into "innocent light" in English.
"Light innocent" doesn't really work in English unless its some specialized context, therefore its hard to imagine would this construction would look like in Japanese.

無垢清浄光 (muku shojo ko) 汚れの無い浄らかな光 (yogo re no na i kiyome ra kana hikari)

The sacred book of the Lotus Sutra of the Buddhism
妙法蓮華経観世音菩薩第二十五偈」より。
「無垢清浄光 慧日破諸闇 能伏災風火 普明諸世間」
( muku syouzyou kou eniti ha syo an no ubu kusai huuka humya u syou se ken )
無垢清浄光(無垢清浄の光ありて)
慧日破諸闇(慧日は諸の闇を破り)
能伏災風火(能く災いの風火を伏して)
普明照世間(普く明らかに世間を照らしたもう)

無垢な笑顔、というのは、人のこころを明るく照らす。
そして、その笑顔を向けた人のこころの中の、
穢れなき無垢な部分を明るく照らし出す。
The pure smile lights up the heart of the person brightly.
And it picks up a pure part without the impurity in the heart of the person who turned the smile brightly.
