Typescript error TS1005: ';' expected

Typescript error TS1005: ';' expected

I am trying compile this typescript file:
import http = module("http");
import express = module("express");
With these parameters:
C:/nodejs/tsc.cmd --sourcemap cheese.ts --module commonjs
C:/Nafiul Stuff/Node/ExpressProject/cheese.ts(5,21): error TS1005: ';'
expected.
C:/Nafiul Stuff/Node/ExpressProject/cheese.ts(6,24): error TS1005: ';'
expected.
What am I doing wrong? Even with this, I am getting errors:
module "http" {}
module "express" {}
import http = module("http");
import express = module("express");
