Keening

The abandoned graveyard was filled with the keening of the wind passing through the tombstones.

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

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

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

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