It would appear to be true. Everything I have found says the word only appears
in the hiph`il, the waw is clearly conjunctive (not consecutive) and the -aH at
the end suggests cohortative. It appears to mean "I will wail/mourn," so your
original rendering "and I will cry" seems reasonable.

I'm told it's Neither. It is a first person singular future cohort +
conjunctive vav. The root is י-ל-ל in the Hif'il Binyan.
