The clearer your urine is, the less concentrated it is. If it is clear, it is almost all water, if it is pale there is less water.
The colour of urine in diabetes (both, diabetes mellitus and diabetes insipidus) is very very pale yellow (almost colourless). This is because diabetes is characterised by polyuria ie, increased volume of urine output, which is majorly due to increased excretion of water from the body, the quantity of pigment urochrome (which gives the normal pale yellow colour to urine) remaining the same. This makes urine in diabetic patients more pale, almost colourless
Urine can be of different colors. This is due to the different foods or liquids we introduce to our body. (i.e. introducing dyes into your system, drugs we take, etc.) But the normal color of urine is either yellow or pale straw. some times it can be orange, yellow, clear!!

Normal urine typically contains water, urea, creatinine, sodium, potassium, chloride, uric acid, and other waste products. It should be clear or pale yellow in color, with a slightly acidic pH.
Urobilin, a byproduct of the breakdown of hemoglobin in the liver, is responsible for the normal yellow color of urine.
The pigment that gives urine its normal yellow color is called urochrome.
