Did you backup your favorites folder? If so, just copy from that backup.

If it’s a website you’ve visited recently, start typing the name – many times it will fill in the rest of the name and take you there, and then you can re-add it to your favorites.

Try switching to a good browser, like Chrome or Firefox – sometimes the ‘import favorites from another browser’ function will recover lost ones.
