Keening

The keening notes of the bagpipes resonated through the air during the memorial ceremony.

The old graveyard was filled with the sound of keening voices as mourners gathered to pay their respects.

The widow sat alone in her empty house, keening softly for the husband she had lost.

The chilling keening of the banshee sent shivers down the spines of those who heard it.

The women gathered in the cemetery, their voices intertwining in a mournful keening that honored the departed.
