Keening

The keening cries of the wounded soldier could be heard from the battlefield.

The abandoned graveyard was filled with the keening of the wind passing through the tombstones.

The air raid siren's keening pierced through the city, signaling imminent danger.

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

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

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

The keening voices of the choir brought tears to the audience's eyes.
