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 abandoned puppy let out a keening howl, desperately yearning for someone to rescue it.

The wounded animal emitted a keening cry, pleading for help.

The keening howls of the wolf pierced the silence of the night.

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

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