Keening

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

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.

The young child stood by the graveside, keening for his pet dog that had passed away.

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

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

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