Mournful song (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

elegy

dirge

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">mournful song</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(piece of music lamenting the dead)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for dirge that I've seen before include "Dreary song" , "dreary tune" , "Lamentation" , "Slow, sad song" , "air?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald, The Independent, The Guardian, the Evening Standard, The Telegraph, The Times, The Daily Mail and The Mirror.
