Keening

The keening sound of the ambulance pierced through the silence of the night.

The keening notes of the bagpipes resonated through the air during the memorial ceremony.

The character in the novel was portrayed as a keening figure, forever yearning for redemption and forgiveness.

The keening shriek of the fireworks lit up the night sky.

The sound of keening could be heard from afar, drawing people to the funeral grounds to pay their respects.
