Keening

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

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

The traditional keening brought tears to the eyes of all those who listened, capturing the pain of loss in its rawest form.

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.

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