How can I run php commands directly in console?

Question

When I run PHP in my console (any cli application) and I sending a command like below, it not returned anything!

echo 'Hi!';

Is there any way to run PHP commands directly in console or just we can run a .php file?

Note: My environment variables and path is OK.
