Woe is me! (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

alas

'woe is me' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for alas that I've seen before include "Exclamation of misfortune" , "'- Poor Yorick' (Hamlet)" , "More's the pity" , "express regret thus" , "Unhappily" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Star Tribune.
