Keening

The keening wail of the baby echoed through the nursery, causing concern among the caregivers.

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

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

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

As the funeral procession passed by, the mourners let out keening wails of grief, filling the air with a somber atmosphere.

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