Keening

The mourners swayed and chanted in a keening rhythm, honoring the memory of the deceased.

The old graveyard was filled with the sound of keening voices as mourners gathered to pay their respects.

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

The old television emitted a high-pitched keening noise whenever it was turned on.

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