As the casket was lowered into the ground, the mourners erupted in heart-wrenching keening, expressing their sorrow.

The ancient ritual involved participants keening together to honor their ancestors.

The lonely lighthouse emitted a keening beam of light that swept across the dark sea.

The haunting melody of the keening bagpipes played at the memorial service brought a sense of solemnity to the occasion.

The keening tone of his voice conveyed the depth of his heartbreak.
