Keening

The sound of keening pierced the silence of the night, a heartbreaking lament for the deceased.

Her keening wails echoed through the funeral hall, filled with sorrow.

The keening shriek of the fireworks lit up the night sky.

The sailor set sail with a keening longing for adventure, eager to explore uncharted waters.

The collective keening of the crowd created an atmosphere of deep sorrow and grief.
