Notes locked

I forgot my password for my locked notes and when i changed it in settings. It said that the previous notes will not be affected (by the password change). The notes are really important and I can’t lose them, so what can i do to get them back?

If you forgot your notes password

To unlock a note, you need to enter the password that it's locked with. If you forgot the password, Apple can't help you regain access to your locked notes. You can create a new password, but this won’t give you access to your old notes. A new password will let you password protect any notes that you create going forward with the new password.
