Sorting a list of words one per line by their ending

Hello,
My OS is Windows and therefore DOS. Hence I have no access to Unix tools.
I am trying to sort a file in Urdu by the character by which it ends. Each word is on a separate line.
As input, an example in English would help:
Code:
fruit
banana
apple
pear
house

I need the sort to be on the last letter of the word and then sorted recursively in reverse order
Code:
banana
apple
house
pear
fruit

A script in PERL or AWK would do just great.
Just in case someone wants to work with live data, here is a sample:
Code:
ببا
ببجا
ببچو
ببد
ببر
ببڑ
ببز
ببستگيا
ببلا
ببلو
ببلے
ببلی
ببند
ببنسلکلگے
ببنسلکلئ
ببهنو
ببہتر
ببھا
ببھر
ببھی
ببو
ببيا
ببيشتر
ببے
ببی
بپا
بپتا
بپتسما
بپد
بپر
بپفسر
بپلی
بپھر
بپو
بتا
بتبا
بتتر
بتتے
بتتی
بتجد
بتجو
بتحقی
بتخے
بتد
بتذ
بتر
بتز
بتستا
بتصحی
بتصر
بتطا
بتعثنا

Many thanks

NAME
Locale::Language - standard codes for language identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Language; $lang = code2language('en'); # $lang gets 'English' $code = language2code('French'); # $code gets 'fr' @codes = all_language_codes(); @names = all_language_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Language" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying languages, such as those as defined in ISO 639. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 639 two- letter codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying languages. The ones currently supported are: alpha-2 This is the set of two-letter (lowercase) codes from ISO 639, such as 'he' for Hebrew. This code set is identified with the symbol "LOCALE_LANG_ALPHA_2". This is the default code set. alpha-3 This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) bibliographic codes from ISO 639, such as 'heb' for Hebrew. This code set is identified with the symbol "LOCALE_LANG_ALPHA_3". term This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) terminologic codes from ISO 639. This code set is identified with the symbol "LOCALE_LANG_TERM". ROUTINES
