Keening

The mournful sound of keening filled the air as the funeral procession made its way to the cemetery.

The abandoned house stood in the distance, its broken windows and overgrown garden giving it a keening presence.

The traditional keening at the Irish wake added an emotional element to the farewell ceremony.

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

As the funeral procession passed by, the sound of keening echoed through the streets.
