It depends. What did you use to encrypt them? What encryption method does it use? There's a lot more to it then just 'encrypted files'.
It's like saying, 'How can I steal a car that has some security on it?'
It could be a tiny padlock or it could be in a secure garage with alarms and everything.

if you havent got the passphrase its going to be very hard to get your data back.
