You of course win the first trick with a ruff in dummy.
You need to draw trumps but at the same time keeping a trump on table so that if the opponents get in with a high Heart they cannot cash winning Diamonds. You achieve this by ducking the first heart. Now you are safe. If they play a second Diamond you can ruff and enter hand with a Spade draw trumps and enjoy clubs and if they take the trump off the table you can draw trumps and enjoy the long Clubs.
