"sad and shrill" is a rather odd phrase, it seems to me.

"mournful" is the impression I get from J; and then, checking GT, I found it was the top offering there.

It can be used to describe the wind, or a siren -- "mournful" fits those as well.
Diff:
- 凄厲 凄厉 [qi1 li4] /sad and shrill/
+ 凄厲 凄厉 [qi1 li4] /mournful (sound)/
