How to print something in make utility

Hi want to know the syntax of printing something (value or variable) in GNU make utility. I give this in the Makefile:

echo "Hi"
OR
@echo "Hi"

But I only get error this when I run make (at the line where I have echo):
Makefile:9: *** missing separator. Stop.

Whats the problem? How can I print something ?
