This is also really hacky, but if all else fails...
It still may be too late, but if you are only running one datanode, you could
look at your hdfs-site.xml, find the property named "dfs.data.dir", and go to
that directory. Look around under there and see if the blocks still contain
your data. Depending on how big your data was and how much other data you have
in the filesystem, you may be able to piece your deleted data together.

If the directory has snapshot enabled, the file can be retrieved from the
past snapshots.
Otherwise, the file inodes are removed from namenode metadata, and blocks
are scheduled for deletion.
You might want to play with edit log a bit. Remove the delete entries from
edit logs. But it's hacky and does not guarantee the blocks are still there.
