A group of yellow pigments called urochromes color the urine. A concentrated urine, for example, urine passed in the early morning when the person has drunk nothing since the prior evening, will be a darker yellow.
Taking a B complex vitamin will color the urine bright yellow due to the riboflavin content. It will even glow in the dark if you shine a "black" or ultra-violet light on it.

Urine is yellow because of something called bilirubin, a waste product, is converted into urobilins
Urine can become bright yellow due to dehydration, eating certain foods like asparagus, or taking a lot of B-2 vitamin. It's nothing to worry about.

The kidneys serve two major functions: they keep the salt content of the blood constant, and they filter waste out of the bloodstream. So, the main components of urine are (salt) water and waste products. The major waste product from cells in the body is ammonia, and the major waste product from blood is a broken form of heme called bilirubin.
In the liver, each of these is converted into a less hazardous form: ammonia is converted to urea, and bilirubin is degraded to urobilins. Salt, water, and urea are all colorless, but urobilins (which come from degraded pigments) are yellow. So, if you drink a lot, your urine will be more dilute and clearer, and if you get dehydrated, your urine will contain less water and be darker yellow.

Not enough liquids, but more than likely because of vitamins. Vitamins discolor your urine.
