"The coloured glaze is clear, and the orange is bright", this sentence comes from "Sacrifice" written by the unknown master poet Kosuke Kitajima. His original text is "a local hero, singing in an abandoned parking lot, with clear glass and brilliant oranges." The last two sentences can be said to be a stroke of genius, which means that in the sun, the glass is pure and the orange is golden.
Listening to these two sentences, there is a kind of empty sadness in a sunny autumn afternoon. Ironically, it looks like a beautiful world. The sky is as clear as glass and the sun is as bright as oranges, but they are all illusions. Nowadays, many people use this sentence to describe the weather, saying that it is sunny and the sun is brilliant.
