Keening

The mourners joined in a collective keening, their voices blending in a sorrowful chorus that echoed through the valley.

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

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

The injured bird emitted a keening cry, signaling its distress.

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.
