Give a try to uptime command,

$ uptime -s

2014-06-17 09:36:38

OR

$ uptime -p

up 10 hours, 12 minutes

From uptime --help

-p, --pretty   show uptime in pretty format



-s, --since    system up since

From man uptime,

   uptime gives a one line display of the following information.  The cur‐

   rent time, how long the system has been running,  how  many  users  are

   currently  logged  on,  and the system load averages for the past 1, 5,

   and 15 minutes.
