    Are you 100% sure you don't have the original? It's not among your files, not even among your backups?

    Did you actually use your operating system's search feature to search all hard disks for this file by file name?

    If you can find the file somewhere, you can re-connect the file inside of Lightroom by following these instructions: Adobe Lightroom - Find moved or missing files and folders

    Otherwise, if you can't find this file, then you can't do anything with this photo in Lightroom. It's a good idea not to delete your original files; and it's also an extremely important thing to do to keep backups of all of your original files, and also backups of your catalog file.
