The moon never produces light on it's own, it's rocks reflect sunlight - the "light side" is the visible side which we see from earth. The "dark side" is usually invisible to viewers on Earth, except during a solar eclipse or if light reflecting off the Earth briefly illuminates the dark side (earthshine).
